  • Abstract
    In this paper we describe a new approach to system specification that takes the language Z as its inspiration but moves the focus from language to logic and from specification to wide-spectrum. In this paper we illustrate the differences between Z and nuZ and the advantages of the latter by means of illustrative examples.
